thought. By this time realized that 1 was nearly frozen. There was nc stove in the car.
 "Where is the fire?" asked of the conductor.
 "ln ront," he replied. "llave to have fire, or we couldn't raise steam. Think this company wants to run trains without steam?"
 shortly atterwam the train stopped. noticed that all the pas sengers were getting off.
 asked the conductor why he had stopped.
 20 let the passengers warm them selves" he replied. Think this com pany wants it's passengers to freezer"
 l looked out and saw the passengers warming themselves at burning log heap. l got out and warmed myself.
 Well" said the conductor, glancing up at the sun, tits about time we was joggin' along, Everybody that's goin' my way, come ahead"
 We had gone about ten miles far ther when the train stopped again,
 "Fifteen minutes for warmth" n brakeman shouted, and looking out, l saw that the passengers were making d break for another burning log heap.
 The conductor, after timing himself by the sun, called out:
 Well, feller-c citizens, let's shove"
 "Hold on," said the woolly fellow whose ignorance had generously ex- cuscd. "l have jest put some pcrtatcrs in the fire to roast, an if you won't bc snatchcd, wei eat snack"
 "All right" the conductor replied, "we'll wait. Sim" Undressing brake man, "there's pone of co'n bread un- der my seat wrapped up in rag. Go ahd fetch it. Anybody got any saltl"
 "I hain't," the younger woman re- piled. "Mur told me I'd better fetch some, but didn't low I'd need it."
 We ken git along without it." the conductor gallantly replied, "but | wish you had took your mothers ad- vice."
 After eating lunch of corn bread and roasted potatoes, the conductor said that "we'd better be knockin' along" When we stopped at the next burning log heap, fell into con- versation with the conductor.
 "Who provides all these burning log -heaps?" asked
 "W'y, the company, of course. Ain't you got no more sense than to reckon this company wants its passengers to freeze? Whar wuz you raised, any howl"
 But would it not be cheaper to have stoves in the cars?" asked.
 Look here, do you think this com pany stands back for little expense? You must have been raised whar folks air stingy. Come on, now, everybody that wants to whiz over the country with me-"
 We reached Rilcy's Cove, which is only about sixty miles from Cotton Bloom, some time during the night. l wish it to be distinctly understood that have not set this down In mal- ice, nor do I intend it to be a howl against monopolies.-Opie 7. Read.

It is said of ThemistocIcs that he could call by their names all the peo- pie of Athens, which city then num- bered twenty thousand inhabitants. Themis was pretty smart, but we have our opinion of . man who mem- orizes the names of a city's entire population in order to have an excuse for not buying copy of the city di- rectory when the agent comes around.

 She saw that my literary soul had begun to slash itself around, and with out farther trying 10 obstruct the wheels of literary progress, she brought me the tools whereby ex- press my thoughts to the world. l made that pen myself.

How little the man that put the hoop on the churn thought that his work would indi- rectly contribute to the literature of this country.

CARDINAL GIBBONS AND MGLYNN.
An Authorized Statement of the Part the
Cardinal Took in the Affair,

| NaTdlnaI TOOK II the Affair,
BALTIMORE, Sept. 1O.-Cardinal Gibbons
was seen early this morning in regard to the
statements of the Brooklyn Standard of his
connection with the suppression of The letter
10 Rome regarding the case of DR.. McGIynn.
After reading the matter he simply said: 81
nave no reply to make" Cardinal Gibbons
THIS evening authorized the following state
ment In reference to his connection with the
McGiynn case. Shortly after his arrival
IN Rome In February last, Cardinal Gibbons.
IN an audience with the holy father, was re.
quested by his holiness to ask McGIynn to
come to Rome. The next day the cardinal
complied with the instructions of the HOLY
father, but as he did not know DR.. McGlynn's
address he wrote letter to DR.. Burtsell, be
cause he regarded him as friend of Dr.. Nc |
Giynn. Some weeks later Cardinal Gibbons |
received reply from Dr. BuriseIl, giving the
reasons and excuses why McGlynn did not
go 10 Rome. As the answer from DIR. BurtseI
vas addressed, not to Cardinal SImeoni, but
20 Cardinal Gibbons himself, the latter saw
10 reason for handing the letter to the promo.
'anoa' For, however, from 'suppressine" its
ontents, he was very careful to communicate
hem to the cardinal perfect OF the propo
anda.
